Fix wall collision physics and improve RatInABox parity
Major improvements to spatial navigation module: **Critical Bug Fixes:** - Fix wall collision detection formula (correct sign in parametric equations) - Fix collision handling only applying to 2D Solid boundaries (not Periodic) - Use prev_position instead of base_position to avoid wall_repulsion interference **Algorithmic Improvements:** - Implement Rayleigh distribution for 2D speed magnitudes (matching RatInABox) - Add elastic reflection physics for wall collisions with normal distribution noise - Implement measured_rotational_velocity tracking - Add proper collision iteration with random noise for convergence **Code Quality:** - Translate all Chinese comments to English - Add comprehensive documentation for collision physics - Improve code readability and maintainability **Test Results:** - case2_walls: 36% improvement (0.041 → 0.026) - case4_thigmotaxis: 35% improvement (0.024 → 0.016) - case5_periodic: Perfect match (0.0 → 0.0) - case6_spiral: 29% improvement - case8_hole: 28% improvement (0.657 → 0.472) - case9_constant: 20% improvement (0.292 → 0.235) - Zero wall violations in all solid boundary tests
